A good sprinter will be able to stay out of sight, and out of the wind, until the very last moment, Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) is a master of just that skill, and the master of today's sprint in Sisteron. He came from back in the back in the last two or three hundred meters to fly past the best sprinters in the world. Taking second was the Irish National Champion, Sam Bennett (Deceuninck-Quick Step), with the both Italian and European Champion, Giacomo Nizzolo (NTT Pro Cycling) taking the last step of the stage podium. Rounding out the top five were Hugo Hofstetter (Israel Start Up Nation) and Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe). Sagan's fifth place and the less than ideal finish for Alexander Kristoff was enough for Sagan to claim the Maillot Vert of best sprinter in the Tour. And honor that he has carried to Paris a record breaking seven times. Will he be able to make it an eighth time?
